|
## Create a tarball from a package
|
|
|
|
### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm pack [[<@scope>/]<pkg>...] [--dry-run]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
|
|
For anything that's installable (that is, a package folder, tarball,
|
|
tarball url, name@tag, name@version, name, or scoped name), this
|
|
command will fetch it to the cache, and then copy the tarball to the
|
|
current working directory as `<name>-<version>.tgz`, and then write
|
|
the filenames out to stdout.
|
|
|
|
If the same package is specified multiple times, then the file will be
|
|
overwritten the second time.
|
|
|
|
If no arguments are supplied, then npm packs the current package folder.
|
|
|
|
The `--dry-run` argument will do everything that pack usually does without
|
|
actually packing anything. Reports on what would have gone into the tarball.
